Never run out of rubber bands

I am very impressed with this kit so far!! Instructions are very thorough, including lots of pictures. The build is "rugged" lots of reinforcing. landing gear is usually wire, but this one has steel rod bent to shape.

Watching this with interest. If Spackling compound is used, try using it straight from the tub. If it's diluted. depending upon how much water is used in the mix, that's when it'll start to shrink. The beauty of Spackling, is it's generally softer than the surrounding balsa, so you won't end up over-sanding the surrounding wood and creating gouges. Spackling usually comes off pink in color, then turns white when dry. **Word of caution that I haven't seen in the previous builds....always sand only in a well-ventilated area (preferably outside and/ or wear a mask). When sanding, that compound gives off a very fine powdery dust that can get into your lungs..... ask me.

I did a model a while ago and first used spackle and after sanding sealed it with 50/50 white glue...That sealed it up and then sanded to a pretty smooth surface
